  • A Breath of Fresh Air Blows on the FEQ!
    July 5 to 15, 2018 PRESS RELEASE For immediate release A breath of fresh air blows on the FEQ! Québec City, Wednesday, March 7, 2018 – Festival d’été de Québec is making a big splash by bringing together the biggest names in international music and unveiling a decidedly contemporary program for its 51st edition! Foo Fighters, The Weeknd, Beck, The Chainsmokers, Shawn Mendes, Future, Lorde, Cyndi Lauper, Avenged Sevenfold and Dave Matthews Band will all be meeting in Québec City from July 5 to 15th. FEQ has entrusted the carte blanche evening to Patrice Michaud for an unrivaled concept show. FEQ will also welcome the legendary Neil Young for his very first visit to the Capital: a long-awaited visit that will attract huge crowds to the only show he will present in Canada. “The FEQ passed an important milestone with its 50th anniversary. Now we are looking to the future and continue to innovate with a modern and diversified program. This next edition is following world trends very closely: we’ll be having a lineup of top stars from many leading festivals, and we’re convinced that festival-goers from all parts of the world will be flocking here this summer,” explained the Interim General Manager, Claude Doré. OUTDOOR STAGES BELL STAGE ON THE PLAINS OF ABRAHAM An explosive reunion is expected for festival-goers and the Foo Fighters, who clearly intend to finish performing the show they began in 2015. That show was cut short after four songs by a severe storm. Ever since that surprise turn of events, legions of rock fans have been clamoring for a long-awaited return.

  • The Barr Brothers
    The Barr Brothers Bio Over the last several years, The Barr Brothers have increasingly become one of the western world’s most distinguished purveyors of eclectic modern-Americana. Fronted by the poly-rhythmic, jocular drumming of Andrew Barr, the songs and guitar playing of brother Brad Barr, and the innovative harp wizardry of Sarah Pagé--who has single-handedly redefined the instrument and its context. The group has been expanding and contracting its sound and its size from their home base in Montreal, QC. Bass, pedal steel, keyboards, and horns come in and out of the mix freely. Equally at home in solemn Arcadian ballads, swampy North African improvs, or classic rock and roll revelry, The Barr Brothers continue to embrace and enchant audiences with their methodical-yet-whimsical approach to music making. The two brothers and Sarah began performing Brad's songs around North America, bringing in other friends on other instruments when needed, spinning these otherwise bedroom- folk songs into an intricate, open terrain. The link they maintain to the past fuses wonderfully with poetic insight into the conditions of the present, while incorporating everything from Malian rhythms to the Elmore James-esque slide guitar. Homemade percussion instruments reminisce the likes of Tom Waits’ five-years-buried muffler and a Jockey Full of Bourbon, while reviving Celtic folk traditions, polyrhythmic harp interplay, and the fire of West African Blues. Their self-titled debut album The Barr Brothers (2011) dances a fine line between the crossroads of Robert Johnson, Arthurian ballads, and the poetic sensibilities of Leonard Cohen. Their sophomore album, Sleeping Operator (2014) delves deeper into the connections between the Delta blues and its ancestry in West and North Africa, while still rooting itself in the softness of Appalachian folk and the soaring resilience of a song’s connective tissues.

It is remarkable to think how much FACTOR has changed since I first became involved with the organization. Over this time, FACTOR has made a number of important improvements and transforma- tional changes in the way it administers funding for the Canadian independent music industry. These include efforts to build staff expertise to ensure consistent, fair and transparent funding; to develop a res- ponsible investment strategy for surplus funding that ensures long-term 2013–2014 FACTOR funding stability; the modernization of our application processes and client services with investments in digital infrastructure; and, most importantly, a re-design of our programs to better reflect how the industry is monetizing recorded music and to ensure investments are made in areas where they will have the greatest potential to be com- mercially meaningful. FACTOR’s ability to successfully navigate the dramatic changes shaping the Canadian independent music industry is due in large part to the stable funding it receives from the public-private partnership shared between Canada’s private radio broadcasters and the Government of Canada through the Department of Canadian Heritage.

  • Thecribs Biog2017 Copy
    THE BARR BROTHERS BIOGRAPHY 2017 To begin their third album, The Barr Brothers had to make some noise together. No plans or distrac- tions, no preconceptions. No friends or strangers, label reps or engineers, no cellphone trills or city sound. No partners. No children. Not even any notebooks of lyrics – verses, choruses, chords preconsid- ered and plotted out. For the first time the band’s three members – namesake siblings Brad and Andrew Barr, harpist Sarah Pagé – would go songless into studio. Empty-handed, whole-hearted, down miles of snowy road to a cabin on a frozen lake, a place full of windows and microphones and starlight and sun- shine, with amplifiers in the bedrooms, their volumes turned up loud. They spent a whole week playing. These were improvisations lasting hours at a time – noons and mid- nights, dusks and dawns, a chance to remember who they were and who they were becoming. Some of this was groove: patterns inspired by India, West Africa and 808 drum machines, deeper and heavier than what they’d tried before. Some of it came from Pagé’s new inventions: humbuckers, Kleenex-box signal-splitters, hacks to make her harp into a versatile, sub-bass-booming noisemaker. But there was also plain old guitar – songs opened up by that big electric sound. Brad had asked, “How do we make music when there is no song?” The answer was this roaming, three-dimensional music, filled with nos- talgia and experiments and rolling space, found on the fringes of Saint Zenon, Québec (pop. 1,1150). The stakes felt high.

  • Katie Moore's Picture of Montreal on "Fooled by the Fun" | No Depression 2015-10-23, 3:59 PM
    Katie Moore & Andrew Horton Katie Moore’s music has always challenged quick categorization by laying its hat on the hooks between folk, Americana, country and 70’s Southern California. Her latest album examines her favourite aspects of the roots of country and bluegrass: harmony singing. Six More Miles (Fat Rainbow Records) is a duets album recorded with Andrew Horton, who has served as bassist in Katie’s band for over 10 years and who fronts the Firemen, a shit- kickin’ country band that has brought the honky-tonk back to Montreal. The album was recorded live over two days at Mixart Studio in Montreal by producer Warren Spicer, and features some of Montreal’s sharpest musicians, including Joe Grass (Patrick Watson, Barr Brothers) on dobro and mandolin, Sage Reynolds (Jordan Officer) on bass, and Alex Kehler (Soulwood) on fiddle and nyckelharpa – an old-time Swedish stringed instrument similar to the hurdy-gurdy but sounded with a bow instead of a wheel. Inspired by the warm sounds of classic country albums such as Merle Haggard’s Roots Vol. 1, the songs on Six More Miles are anchored by Katie and Horton’s lush vocals and emboldened with simple arrangements. Katie’s 2015 album, Fooled by the Fun was declared “one of the strongest Americana releases by a Canadian this year” by No Depression, while her 2011 album Montebello won a GAMIQ award as well as the Socan Songwriting award. This new recording, Six More Miles, showcases Katie and Andrew’s effortless harmonies. The two have been singing together, on stage and off, for years.

As singer-songwriter and SOCAN member Gordon Lightfoot wrote, “If you plan to face tomorrow, do it soon.” These are sage words from one of Canada’s greatest songwriters, and are perfectly in line with SOCAN’s commitment to constantly reinvent itself. Our activities in 2013 were no exception. Reinvention is crucial to the way SOCAN conducts business. In 2013, we collected and distributed record royalties with fewer resources. It was a record year for total revenue, with $276-million brought in for members: an increase of approximately nine percent over 2012. Of this, $51-million came from outside of Canada, which was also an all-time record for SOCAN. At the same time, the net expenses required to run SOCAN in 2013 amounted to only 12.9 percent of total revenues (a substantial improvement over the 15.4 percent of 2012), and the lowest in the history of SOCAN. SOCAN is actually driving down expenses while achieving even better results, as we continually work to improve our efficiencies towards the Eric Baptiste Chief Executive Officer goal of becoming the leanest, most agile and most productive music rights organization in the world.
